Those Venice hotels (http://www.hotelsarea.com/en/c-194-list-hotels-Venice.html) are really an adventure itself. Me and my best friends wanted to go on a holiday last year, but because one of the friends had already planned to do volunteer work in Thailand (http://www.travelworks.co.uk/volunteer-work-thailand.html) for a few months, It wasn't really possible to go together that summer! We decided to just go on a holiday with our own families and planned to go together this year and we finally booked a vacation to Italy. We found one of those 'cruceros ofertas (http://www.cruceroslatitud4.com/micrucero/cruceros1.aspx)' to the warm, exciting country and were all excited immediately. My cousin went to Venice a few years ago and showed me some pictures. WOW! It really looks beautiful and I can't wait to go!
